by the Manning Sisters (Shannon Manning and Manning Peterson)

manningpeterson: me too
manningpeterson: I came home last night and just cried and cried
machitodog: really?
manningpeterson: yep
machitodog: i should have done that. i might've gotten it out of my system
manningpeterson: :-)
manningpeterson: nope, it's still there
machitodog: spring depresses me
manningpeterson: april is the cruelest month
machitodog: all those fuckin daffodils
manningpeterson: memory and desire
machitodog: yeah.
machitodog: are you finding it?
manningpeterson: stirring dull roots with something rain
manningpeterson: no, working
machitodog: ok i will
machitodog: April Is the Cruelest Month for Dot-Com Workers
machitodog: April Is the Cruelest Month, but Mutual Funds Survived
manningpeterson: ha ha
machitodog: April is the cruelest month." Whoever thought that TS Eliot was referring to college acceptance letters? In early April, high school seniors and their ...
manningpeterson: oh my god
manningpeterson: whoever thought??????/
machitodog: April is the cruelest month, breeding GM crops, old bedsprings…
machitodog: They say April is the cruelest month, and this is certainly the case when it comes to feminist holidays.
machitodog: TS Eliot wrote that "April is the cruelest month," but there's something poetic about special author discounts and free books for marketing to use in marketing...
machitodog: As poet TS Eliot said, "April is the cruelest month," and with our help, it will definitely be cruel for a few selected Mac users out there.
manningpeterson: coff
machitodog: Don't ask TS Eliot why April is the cruelest month. Ask the thousands of students checking their mail for admissions letters.
machitodog: "April is the cruelest month" wrote poet TS Eliot, and many Princeton seniors whose theses are due this month will agree.
machitodog: and one last one from Bowlingfans.com:
machitodog: The T.S. Eliot poem, "The Wasteland," begins: April is the cruelest month. T.S. Eliot didn't know half of it. Throughout the country, the majority of book averages are recorded this month. In some areas, the scores go in as early as April 1st, and I'm sure the bowlers in those associations get teased about April Fools.
manningpeterson: He didn't know the half of it
manningpeterson: I bet if he did, he wouldn't have written that damn line
machitodog: i'm on page five and haven't found the poem yet
manningpeterson: oh my god
machitodog: just found it
manningpeterson: http://www.bartleby.com/201/1.html
manningpeterson: first listing
machitodog: April is the cruelest month, breeding
Lilacs out of the dead land, mixing
Memory and desire, stirring
Dull roots with spring rain.
manningpeterson: you forgot the prologue
machitodog: i searched for "april is the cruelest month" eliot
manningpeterson: shit no greek font
manningpeterson: search for "eliot wasteland"
machitodog: ok. i thot i would narrow it..but i didn't!
manningpeterson: I guess that's why I got to marry the librarian
machitodog: Exactly why suicide rates rise in April is unclear, but as American poet and playwright TS Eliot put it, April is the cruelest month
machitodog: (i guess so)
machitodog: When poet TS Eliot wrote that April is the cruelest month, does it feel as though he had your tax situation in mind?
machitodog: TS Eliot wrote that "April is the cruelest month." Poor Tom! He didn't know April would become National Poetry Month.

manningpeterson: you can stop now
manningpeterson: before I kill myself
machitodog: ok.
machitodog: April is the cruelest month said poet TS Eliot in The Wasteland. It may turn out that way for legislators who get redistricted out of existence.
machitodog: When TS Eliot said April is the cruelest month I think he knew a little something about college basketball.
machitodog: i can't stop

 

Sample some more pie!
